Biggest Cage Clashes Of Season In Shelby Friday, Sat Nights Powerful Rutherfordton Team* Here Friday Night. Polkvllle Sat urday Night. Postpone Game The hasketbnll double header between the Ruthrr ford ton and Shelby tram scheduled for the Shelhy tin can Friday night has bei n postponed until a later dat' The game between the Pclk vllle and Shelby girls for the county title will be played Saturday night as scheduled. What should be the best basketball as well as the most colorful exhibited here this year fat scheduled for Friday and Saturday nights In the Shelby high tin can. Friday night the Shelby high teams, boys and girls, will meet the powerful cage outfits from Ruth erfordton, and Saturday night the Polkvile girls teams will come here determined to maintain and cinch their claim to the county cham pionship for the fair cagers. Greatest Yet The Rutherfordton boys quint, which meets the Shilby outfit in the seoond game of Friday night's play, Is without question the great est high school quint to appear here tills season. Only twice In three years have the Rutherfordton lads been defeated. In that time they have defeated the cream of basket ball talent In the two Carolina*, and one of their two defeats was by a prep school team. Earlier this year, playing at Rutherfordton. the Shelby boys held the record-mak ers to a narrow-margin victory. In that game one of the Shelby regu lars was out and with him back in the running the Morris-Falls five believe It has an even chance of turning In a win over the famous visitors. To do so, however, the Shelby coaches have told their boys that they must play an even more inspired game, than they did in their second contest with Lat timore. The psychological angle Is In Shelby's favor, for the visiting quint, although expecting to ha^c to put out some, believes it has the number of the Shelby shooters Capt Hulick, Red Jolley, Max Put nam, Ray Brown, and O. C. Con nor, Shelby regulars, are pointing to the game as they have not to any other this year, because they'd rather even the count with Rutt erfordton than do most anything else they know. The girls game, although it does not pack as much rivalry, will be well worth seeing as an eye-opener for the boys' clash. The clever young misses who ran their string of wins to eleven before losing then dropped two games in a row. As a result they’ve been hearing things from their coaches this week arc! with their feminine fighting spirit aroused they are determined to finish the season without another defeat. Then The Blr Game And on Saturday night comes the big game, the most-talked git Is contest ever staged In the county The PoUcville girls have won 13 vanquished opponents was the contests. Numbered among their smooth LattUnore team. As a result of their undefeated record the Polkvilie girls, paced by Miss Oold a forward that could show sonic boys about dripping in baskets, laid claim to the county title. The Shel by girls, defeated once in the county and having defeated the same team, Immediately challeng ed the title claim. "All right, then," came back the Polkvilie girls, "well Just play you and show you how champions play.” And the game was sheduled for Saturday night. Unless a snow storm blocks the streets and highways the steps leading into the Shelby tin can promise to be packed with basket ball fans Friday night and again Saturday night. For in .hose two nights a county that produces bas ketball material as good as an> of the colleges can lay their hands upon will be strutting out two cr three of Us greatest teams for thi public to see in action.

Casey Morris, athletic director of the Shelby high school, announces that at a meeting of school prin cipals and coaches here Saturday a schedule for the tournament will be outlined. Play Four Nights. Indications are now that the tournament will run through four nights with at least two games per night. It was at first thought that the annual tourney, an athletic highlight of the year In Cleveland, could start on a Thursday night and wind up with the champion ship game on Saturday night. But chances are that so many teams will enter that It will be necessary to have four nights’ play. The I.attlmore and Shelby quints, which for years have battled toe to-toe for the Rotary club, are ranked as favorites to meet In the title game, but there are several other fast teams hi the county which have been coming on rapid ly. To date the Shelby and Lmttt more quints are all square with each other, both having won a game. The Latttmore-Shelby rival ry is not by far the only feature of the annual tourney. There is the rivalry between the Kings Moun tain, Orover and No 9 schools, and the western and up-county rivalry of Belwood, Falls ton, Polkvtllr, Piedmont, Mooreaboro and others.

Ohio, rubber company Would Cut Salaries Of County Officers To the Editor of The Star: I have been thinking for some time of saying something through your paper about our Cleveland county officers' salaries, and while I do not wish to get Into a contro versy with you, yet as you have al ready mentioned the 'nbject In ant editorial January 29 and as our views seem to be entirely different, I wish to refer to and express my disagreement on some things you said in that editorial. But first I wish to say that you are publishing j a good, big, newsy paptr and get ting a big advertising business, and so you are perhaps not feeling the depression like some of us are. What I am going to say Is not against our present officers (all of them who know me are my friends, I hope), but opposing the present salaries. in your editorial mentioned above you said the cutting should be done at the top, speaking of the Federal government, now if the Federal gov ernment won't cut salaries, if they won't help us, I don't consider tha' a good reason that we should not try to help ourselves. That will not excuse us for not doing our duty, for not doing what Is tight. High salaries benefit only a few. We can not all hold office. It is to the In terest of the tax payers to have ex penses as low as possible. No matter how hard a farmer may try to be optimistic he Just can't himself believe that times are good. Not only are the national and state governments facing a deficit, but the farmer is facing a deficit. Some might say it looks good, it sounds big for our county te pay her officers a big salary If any of the other counties want to beat us in that expense item I feel that they should be welcome to the honor If It be one. That is partly what’s the matter with us now, especially as Individuals, trying to keep up with the times with the other fellow. We have been living beyond our means: but we are going to have a change our way of living, the times demand it. The Star recently made public the fact—actually told it on us— that of all the automobile owners In the county nearly half of us had no tags, the cars were parked That shows we are being forced back where we belong. I think cutting expenses should begin at home and that every citi *en should cut his expenses in every way he can and I also think that our county government expenses should be cut. Again referring to your editorial, I don’t think It fair to compare our county officers' sal aries with those of the Federal gov ernment but think it nearer right to compare them with the income oi loss, as the case might be of the tax payers of Cleveland county. One county office alone pays $4, 600. This amount is? perhaps about equal to what a half dozen big fanners on an average lost last year. Certainly I think salaries should be cut, not only ten per cent but several tunes 10 percent. $100 00 per month is n pretty lair salary for a very well equipped man now. $120 00 is a big pile of money these days. One thin? that bears out my claim that salaries should be cut is the fact that over 40 applied for the office of clerk of county re corder's court, and I am oi the opin ion that the one appointed is capa ble of filling one of the higher of fices, and perhaps many others who applied could handle not only the one applied for but one of the high er offices satisfactorily. And this of fice doesn't pay half as much as some of the higher officials get. I have thought It would be a good plan for the candidate# to s^y what they would take the job for. But In that case I don’t claim that the cheapest man should always be el ected. Anyway I think there should be something done about it and let the candidates know there will be a considerable cut in salaries, or make an agreement an 1 let them i know just what the office will pay. i A lot of farms and town lots were advertised for tax last year. If the county eventually takes ever all the farms for taxes maybe they can manage them better than we farm ers can and make them pay better and then maybe they can boost sal aries of the officers and employes. Perhaps they will be able to give the boys a raise Instead of cutting salar ies. But while we are still trying to pay the taxes on our property and have the privilege of voting I want to know if there can't be somethin? done to get expenses down I would like to know how every voter and tax payer in the county feels about it, except our office holders. I am not talking to them or about them but I am talking about their salaries. So we could not ex pect them to be like the young Cleveland county man who took some potatoes to a certain cotton mill village to sell and fceing asked the price of them said- ''Mammy said If I couldn't get 60 cents to take 50." This is no time to play politics. We should get down to business. Do I stand alone on this question or does some one agree with me? DOUGLAS CARPENTER. Belwood. N. C.. R-l Sell Or Not Sell 1 •{• H* H Citizens Discuss Light Plant Sale Little Man Wonders Why So Much Worry Shelby Man Would Like to Know How ( likens Of Other Town* U Like S. P. t\ To the Editor: Reports reaching Shelby, some of them first-hand, Indicate that the four mayors who wrote here and urged us to sell our light plant to the S. P. U. have citlzerc in their towns who do not feel that way about it. One Hickory man who visited here over the week end told his friend that “you'll be a fool to sell. The S. P. U. owns and operates our plant and I know what I'm talking about. The majority of the ether citizens there who have to pay the bills will tell you the same tiling even If the mayor says otherwise.’’ Write and ask some fiiend in Mt. Airy if everything is as lovely there about rates, etc., as the Ml. Airy mayor told the Shelby mayor. More people live in a town than the may or, and the others pay the bills— light bills, tax bills, major's salar ies, etc. There are a hundred or more towns in North Carolina served by the S. P. U. Did the Shelby mayor hear from only four or did he write to only four for their opinions? If he heard from the others, why was not that information pcssed along? And who picked out the particular town to write? While the mayor and aldermen i were visiting those towns, if they I say they want the people to have j the full facts before deciding, why. didn't each of the aldermen and mayor go down different streets, stop three citizens each, ask them what they thought of S. F. U, rates and then tell us what those various people, tax-payers, thought about it? Instead they rode to a few town, did we know not what, rode back to those town about it, What we need is a statement giving the other side. When they have a debate ovei at the high school the judges do not hear just one side and pa-s along what they've heard If the Shelby officials want to give us proper information for ligurlng this thing out. why not give us some views from people dissatisfied as well as satisfied? Don’t tell us ev erybody in the S. P. U. towns is satisfied. The mayors may be well pleased with S. P. U. ownership. Just taking a blind guess, perhaps our mayor would But r. mayor pays only one light and power bill each month, and there are several thou sand other payers. Interest It’s amusing to hear this tain about how they’ll help the little man by selling, If that's so, the end of time cannot be far away. No one sver saw so many people* who are not little men working to save the poor little fellows. That big-heart edness is kinder Scaring the little fellow. They can make their figures look mighty good. Duke would never have made such a fortune had he not been able to make his figures look good to the other fellow. You have a house, I walk up and offer you $1,500 and you take me without asking a little more. Ever hear of such a thing happening. Yet they want (and who is urging us on and why?) us to sell right now. quick pronto. Very few people trade that way. And lots of people are looking now beyond the ends of their noses. Tax might be pulled down a little now—I doubt it—but a few years from now up they'll go—and what In the world will we have to sell to the first bidder then? The little fellow better begin think tag'. And if he thinks, he’ll quickly realize he never heard of so many Santa Clauses running around two months after Christmas, or on Christmas, trying to cut his taxes tnd just give him something. In conclusion I have me request :o make. I am asking the Editor of :his paper to write the mayor of Salisbury, a S. P. U. owned town for bis views on the matter and that his reply be published in this paper. W. A.

Woodmen Would Not Surrender $26,000 Of City Of Shelby Bonds Tn the event Shelby sold her light plant and attempted to retire outstanding bonds in order to clear all bonded indebtedness, would the bond holders be willing to surren der the bonds upon payment of same before they mature?

Hamrick, member of the Woodmen of the World wrote the Sovereign camp, Woodman of the World at Ohama, Nebraska, this fra ternal order holding *26,000 of Shel by bonds. Special School District No. 33, 5 l-4s, dated May 1st, 1931. Not this reply to Mi-. Hamrick’s letter, written by John T. Yates, secretary of the finance committee: "We note your inquiry with ref erence to going in and redeeming some of the outstanding bonds be fore maturity. We could not con sent to release these bonds before maturity except upon the payment of a certain premium therefor. We purchased these bonds in the first instance upon the theory we would hold them to maturity and at the time of our purchase we paid a con siderable premium for the bonds. Now- then, if we were to releale the bonds, presumably at par, we would of course subject ourselves to a considerable loss as the premium has not of course yet been earned and therefore I am afraid that we would not care to release the bonds before their maturity date. The bonds do not carry any option priv ilege as to payment before matur ity.” , Why Does S. P. U. Seek Shelby Plant To The Edit*-: Why shoul? the Southern Pubhr Utilities company wish to purchase our light plant if it is losing money? Articles have been published con taining figures that make us be lieve we have been losing money operating our light plant. Differ ent articles stated that it is cost ing us so much for the upkeep of our plant that it does not pay us to continue operating it and that we should sell to Southern Public Utilities company. Ask yourself this question: Would you purchase a business after the owner has shown you that he is losing money each year operating this place of business? The answer is emphatically no! Then why does Southern Public Utilities company wish to purchase our light plant if it is losing money? It does not take a Boudin to figure this question.
